Q. Find the x-intercept of the line 10x+14y=−18. Write your answer as an integer or as a simplified proper or improper fraction, not as an ordered pair.
Set y to 0: To find the x-intercept, we set y to 0 and solve for x.Substitute 0 for y in the equation 10x+14y=−18.10x+14(0)=−1810x=−18
Substitute in equation: Now, we divide both sides of the equation by 10 to solve for x.1010x=10−18x=10−18x=5−9
